Hi Spider.

Alf, you make a good secretary the way you follow my orders without questioning (whilst calling me a dickhead behind my back).
if you had longer (and better legs) and few more assets - you'd THEN be a very unattractive woman and I STILL wouldn't employ you!
;D
FYI Spider, I can think of a lot better names to call you HaHa.
However I'll need to use a scissor lift to say them to your face!!!
Employ me.....you couldn't afford me Ha! Although the other weeks dinner was good......
Happy to organise, some one has to tell you where to go.....occasionally.
Tally Ho Chaps.
Alf.

Beast with two backs??? I'm lost there mate... I must have been pissed!!! (no surprise really....)
Thanks for all the positive thoughts guys... Dad is on the improve, but a long way from being OK...
Ita
Ita, if you need any couriering done, just ask! as long as I can pick it up on my bike I'm there! I'd put your mum on the back if she had a helmet.
Best of luck for Dad.

It's the forums profanity filter - it replaces the word f u c k with "the beast with two backs" if it is turned on. You can turn it on and off in your profile preferences
The profanity filter obviously spent time doing English poetry before coming to work for the DMF and has previously studied Shakespeare?
Surprised it doesn't turn 'pregnant doges' into 'witches'! ;D

Is that what it is, dam it was annoying me. I was on my wifes Mac when I noticed it (not logged in) and then it was gone when i logged in at work. That explains it.

Ya gotta love Herpes... A gift for life :'( [laugh]
Gedday guys...
Dad had surgery today and is now in the Critical Care Unit... The Doctors are optimistic and think he will recover...
Ita
Good to hear Ita. We had damn fine food and coffee but missed your presence..but your priorities are in order.
Thanks to Wraith and Simon (Newrider) for coming along, I just hope Brendan didn't scare you too much (that's why we put him at the end).
also, well done to everyone for putting in the right cash...meant that the place got a nice tip...which to me is pretty important...
and...when I went in again to ask for a serviette to wipe the grease off my fingers (after messing with Simon's bike) the waitress wrote a number down on one and told me to give it to the cute guy on the table. I'll give her a call tomorrow night shall I?
I'm not scary, just misunderstood... yes our waitress was lovely. There's no need to call her for me Spider, I can do it myself.
Cavellero has the best porridge I've ever had, good choice [thumbsup]
Sorry I had to leave quickly but I was supposed to take my sister and BIL to the airport, but got a message to say they decided to take themselves. So I rumbled along to Ducati City to organise the 12,000k service and I bumped in to the Mad Alf and had a squize at poor Heathers chewed out rear wheel :'( Anyway, as I walked outside I noticed there was a pink piece of paper attached to my bike. Apparently Ducati City were trying to sell it for $15,990, there was slight embarrassment as I walked in telling them they haven't put enough money on my bike. [laugh]
Nice to see a few new faces as well, top morning ;D
you reckon that's embarrassing? Poor Alf found a pink piece of paper attached to his arse with 'make us an offer' on it!
Those Ducati City boys will sell anything ;D
he he he you guys are funny, was good to meet everyone and talk lots of Ducati stuff, had heaps of fun, then went to my tatt appointment and saw another Ducati rider, asked him if he was on here but he wasn't, so oh well. Was the day for being out on a bike
Looking foward to catching up with guys for a ride some day.
ride safe [thumbsup]
so show me your tatt newrider
still healing and not finished, demands demands he he he, ill take a photo and send it to you, just a japanese sleeve, done by the good guys down at tattoo magic in gertrude st

Cheers Newrider, like to see other peoples body art [thumbsup]
Howdy All.
Another fine breaky, attending Spider, DosVerde, Wraith, Newrider and Madalf.
Many ideas, contacts and Ducati related issues thrown around.
Next time we're sitting outside, so we all can admire the Collingwood wildlife...hint hint Spider.
Great to meet a more new people, Newrider works with my previous manager!!!
Standard operation proceedure is to amdire everyone elses bits before leaving...on their bikes.
How does first Saturday of the month sound for breaky, a regular date.
And yes I bumped into someone at Ducati City too!
Looking into a ride shortly, but not circum-navigating Vic in one move....yes Spider I know, Chum Creek Road.
Cherrio all.
Madalf...sexatary to the stars.
yeah sounds good alf, and im dead keen for a ride soon, apart from my usuall ride to work that is, weather permitting I guess.
Hi all,
Sounds like you had a great morning on Saturday. Spewing that I missed it but had a good camping trip anyway.
Also drove along some roads that would be awesome on a bike through areas around Foster, Fish Creek, and Leongatha so if anyone feels like organising ..... otherwise pick a date and I'll get the maps out.
Cheers.
